If the Remainers want her in, that spells trouble.We can but hope that either Labour MP, Lindsay Hoyle, who has been Deputy Speaker for many years, or Conservative MP, Dame Eleanor Laing, getS the post. Fingers crossed.
You are so right Shroppy.
We used to call her Harriet Harperson.
Bossier than Theresa May.

Re: Begone Bercow!
Bercow has uttered his last 'Order order'
.I watched the committee stage of the Election bill the other day with deputy Speakers taking the chair and what a difference without Bercow's ranting.
Proceeds progressed at a pace, the HOC seemed calmer and wrecking amendments were swiftly dismissed.
I feel the MPs will get twice as much work done now Bercow isn't taking up half the day pontificating...
